CHICAG", ILL, Aug. 27-After the first few
sales in speculative grains this morning prices
became very steady, with easier tendency. The
disposition to trade was not very pronounced
and the bulk of operations was in the way OF
! settling up trades in readiness for next Wrek .
| visible supply statement. There was very little
| to MAKE u maraet on. There was decided de-
| preston in the wheat pit early IN the sea, lon
| and there was the usual Saturday clearing.
| There was no interest taken in the market;
| large receipts anticipated next week was the
| depressing element. september wheat opened
| at &c, lost &c, and continued steady at Gc sc
| during the session, and closed at G9c. Corn
| only moderately active. The markes was
governed by local influences largely no out
side news of impor ance received. The market
opened shade easier Tran yesterday close,
at IL &c for September, was easy Tor time ana
then advanced &c under falr local inquiry.
Prominent local operators bought freely iater
offerings became more liberal, Influenced by
prospects of larger receipts next week. 55e
cars being estimated for Monday, and pricee
declined &C, ruled steady and closed &C lower
than yesterday at 407a Gilc for September
MAY closed at!l75c Provisions were slow in
a speculative way, but the shipping business
was large and aggregate shipments
for the west were unusually neavy ana stocks
considerably reduced, and with such move
ment SPECTATORS argued that the market should
do better, but 1t responds slowly to ordinary
influence The feeling is easy and prices
lower, but declines were only "a to SC. Lard
